Today (Friday, October 31) at midnight is the last day to donate money to defeat Prop 8 in time to purchase more television ads, but people can continue to contribute in order to help fund get-out-the-vote efforts next week, said Patrick Guerriero, No on 8 campaign director.

Guerriero urged people to keep contributing.

Prop 8 would eliminate the right of same-sex couples to marry in California.

In an e-mail blast, Brad Sears, executive director of UCLA’s Williams Institute wrote, “the No on 8 campaign needs to raise $3 million by midnight tonight [Friday] - to make sure a clear message that Prop 8 is discriminatory and unfair continues to reach voters in these final days.”

In a separate e-mail blast, Geoff Kors, executive director of Equality California and a member of the No on 8 executive committee, announced that Tim Gill and Scott Miller will match donations up to $100,000 “if you respond now.”
